It really isn't, but it depends on a team being willing to take a risk on getting Love with no guarantee of him signing a new deal next year.


Cleveland was willing to throw all kinds of stuff at Minny but there was no way Love would re-sign with that dumpster fire.

I would love that trade. I really like Middleton.

But haven't really heard anything about that though.

It would be nice if they could steal Bledsoe from Suns.

Yep. Will take as many good players going east as possible.

Well the Bucks backcourt is by far the weakest part of their roster. They have a lot of Forwards / post players.

Greek Freak, Jabari Parker, Middleton, Damian Inglis, Ilyasova, Henson, Sanders, ZaZa, Miroslav Raduljica, and Johnny O Bryant.

They really only have Knight and Mayo as guards. And I guess Delfino would be considered as a guard as well, more of a 3pt specialists though and not really a ball handler.

Rivers and scrubs for Asik
3 way S&T of Smith/Aminu/Roberts and scrubs for Jack and Pick
S&T of whatever is left for Dudley.

The stars would have to line up for all of that to happen, but then you've basically turned Rivers and a pick into Asik/Jack/Dudley and a pick.

Something from Damian Lillard's twitter a few days ago:
quote:

Damian Lillard ?@Dame_Lillard Jul 3
“@farrisf35: @Dame_Lillard One player you'd like to play with.” Anthony Davis
Lillard's asked to name 1 guy he'd like to play with and he says Anthony Davis.

I don't think this is insignificant. Not as it relates specifically to Lillard, but a general feeling around the league about Davis

Its the same thing that got Chris Paul to ok a trade to THE CLIPPERS. The worst franchise in the history of the league. Griffin was enough of a draw to bring in Paul.

The hope has always been that Davis would become a draw, and it bodes well if elite guys are already taking notice.

And to think that the Pels were real close to drafting that guy.

I think he's referring to the fact that many people wanted to draft Lillard if he dropped to the Pels at 10. A few analysts had him dropping that low.
